Spotted: burgandy/black GTT rego on Mowbray Road on Saturday

Anyone here?

I was in the car in front waving like a loon. The hint that you were behind another SVX'er was the SVX-33H number plates, albeit on a Toyota.

Re: Spotted: burgandy/black GTT rego on Mowbray Road on Saturday

Well, many years ago before owning an SVX, a Toyota Camry did sterling and amazing service as a limited edition 'SVX Pursuit Vehicle' so all part of the SVX heritage!

After deciding that it is unlikely that I will get one again, GTT turns up behind me. I abandoned the car, wife and kids in the car space and ran back up to see if he was still there (traffic delays) but too far up the road and a very unhappy wife.

Not sure he would have appreciated someone running up, out of breath and screaming in the window

"hiyoudon'tknowmebutjointhesvxnetwork.thisisaserie s1,lovely car..." BOOM as my head explodes



So thanks GTT driver - you have kicked off my addiction again!

For a while there James, I thought that can't possibly be the same Toyota chase car.

No idea who has that car.

It's been upgraded to an Avalon!

It will take a while to come to terms with how insanely expensive cars are here compared to the UK (where I certainly had my fix of uberbarges!) so only needed a runabout till I decide what to get - my wife will learn to drive in it so does not matter if she scuffs it etc.

Went through the collection of SVX things that I have gathered over the years - certainly managed to get a lot. My wife commented that if I don't get one, then perhaps sell them off. I'll give it a few months and then see.
